World War III? How, Where and Why?

On November 21, 2013, during a Weiss Research investor cruise to the Caribbean, Money and Markets editor Larry Edelson made a dire prediction:

“Starting immediately, global conflicts will continue to ramp up until 2020. World War III is coming.”

Ten months later, on September 13, 2014, Pope Francis issued a similar warning. He announced that, with the current spate of crimes, massacres and destruction, a kind of World War III may have already begun.

And exactly one month later, during the Association of United States Army (AUSA) conference, top brass from the U.S. armed forces made similar predictions, hotly debating America’s declining readiness for such a conflict.

Clearly, this topic is no longer just the domain of biblical prophecies, astrology, or Nostradamus. It’s also a subject that’s seriously discussed by the White House, Pentagon, Kremlin, and People’s Liberation Army.

So today, my mission is to accomplish three things:

First I want to dispel the notion that a future World War III might culminate in a nuclear holocaust. That scenario is far less likely today than it was during the Cold War of the last century.

Second, I want to describe more explicitly how a World War III could begin and what real dangers it does pose.

Finally, I will connect the dots to the economy, your money, and your investments.

Just bear in mind that this is a very big topic. Even encyclopedic volumes of research would not do it justice — let alone the few pages I can write in these early hours between 5 AM in Florida and my publication deadline.

Why a Nuclear Holocaust is Extremely Unlikely

Anything is possible.

Indeed, to the degree that mankind believes a future event “can never happen,” it creates a climate of extreme complacency that ultimately negates the validity of that same belief — a self-negating prophecy.

So, with that danger in mind, you will never catch me categorically promising that “it’s impossible,” that “we can just forget about the threats” and make believe “the risk is zero.”

I hasten to add, however, that a nuclear conflict is far less likely today than at any time since August 6 and August 9, 1945 … when Colonel Paul Tibbets and Major Charles W. Sweeney piloted the Enola Gay and Bockscar, when they loaded the first and last of two atomic bombs ever used in warfare, and when they dropped them on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan.

From that point forward, even during the darkest, most frightening days of the Cold War, no hot buttons were pushed, no missiles launched, no nuclear bombs deployed in battle — for a very obvious reason:

The universal fear of mutual self-destruction and a nuclear winter.

According to Carl Sagan, who coined the term, after any massive nuclear attacks between two superpowers, soot and smoke would create a dark blanket of clouds covering most of the planet. Average temperatures would drop below zero centigrade. And Earth could witness “a mass extinction event,” reminiscent of the “Great Dying” of 252 million years ago, when 70% of land species disappeared.

Anyone who has — or has ever had — decision-making authority over the deployment of nuclear bombs knows these scenarios all too well.

Ultimately, this fear is what prevailed during the Cold War of the 20th Century. And thankfully, it’s the same ubiquitous fear that hangs over every nuke deployment decision likely to be made in the 21st.

In that regard, nothing has changed. Thank God.

What has changed is that the mutual reliance for trade and financial transactions among major nuclear powers is many times greater today than any time during the Cold War. So they have much more to lose from war, even conventional war.

In 1962, the year of the Cuban missile crisis, for example, the total exports and imports between the United States and the Soviet Union were a meager $36 million.

And in 1968, at the height of the massive Vietnam conflict — viewed by historians as a full-scale proxy war between the U.S. and the USSR — the trade between the two countries was still a meager $80 million.

Today, it’s nearly $28 billion. Even after discounting inflation, it’s over $11 billion, or about 141 times more than during the Vietnam War.

Moreover, the flow of investment funds and banking transactions between them are thousands of times greater; they were virtually non-existent during the Cold War.

And precisely the same argument can be made for every nuclear power on the planet:

The leaders of India and Pakistan, for example, know that a nuclear conflict between them would create what their own scientists call “a nuclear autumn” of regional famine and global climate change.

China knows that any use of its nuclear weapons in warfare would merely destroy its vast export markets, which despite its domestic growth, still represent a huge chunk of its economy.

Even North Korea’s leaders, despite their belligerence, depend heavily on the outside world for the hard currency they continually need — to maintain their lifestyles … for perks they award to assure the loyalty of their military brass … for the food they need to keep their people alive … and to do all the things that support the propaganda machine that keeps them in power.

No one dares use nukes. Everyone knows it’s suicidal.

So What Could World War III Look Like?

Larry has done a very good job of spelling it out: All you have to do is look around you, and you will see its many facets — economic wars, proxy wars and cyber wars.

Economic war has already been declared, particularly among three of the world’s largest superpowers — the United States, the European Union and Russia.

Due to Western sanctions, Russia’s embargo on imports from the West and other factors …

Global investors have already taken large sums out of Russian markets.

The Russian ruble has already lost half its value. And …

The Russian economy has already suffered surging inflation, major job cuts, and a rapid decline in living standards.

Worse, if the current pattern of tit-for-tat retaliation and escalation continues, it could lead to a scenario in which …

Russian banks are excluded from the global SWIFT system, isolating their economy to the point of strangulation.

Russia cuts off oil and gas supplies to Europe, fomenting new waves of protests and Russophobia.

The Russian ruble suffers an even deeper collapse, driving the country into a Depression reminiscent of the early post-Soviet era.

Proxy wars have also been declared — especially in Syria and Ukraine, where the U.S. and Russia are already supporting opposite sides.

The two do everything to avoid confronting each other directly on the battlefield. But they wage a seemingly endless battle by using the opposing sides in local civil wars as their proxies.

This is what happened in the Vietnam War, when the USSR emerged as the largest weapons suppliers for North Vietnam … while, over the course of the 11-year conflict, 2.7 million U.S. troops served on the ground for South Vietnam.

It’s also what happened when the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in 1979 — but in reverse. There, it was hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops on the ground, while the U.S. provided weapons and logistic support to the Afghan mujahidin (“one who fights for jihad”), including none other than Osama bin Laden.

And in the years ahead, it’s very possible that we will see similar proxy wars in Eastern Europe, North Africa, the Levant, the Persian Gulf, on the Korean Peninsula, and elsewhere.

Perhaps most concerning of all, cyber warsare already escalating at a rapid pace, with the U.S., UK, China, Russia, Israel, and North Korea first on the cyber-battlefield.

Former spy chief Mike McConnell believes a cyber war might be compared to a nuclear war by the scale of destruction.

And Richard Clarke, Special Advisor to the President for Cyberspace and National Coordinator for Security and Counter-terrorism, writes that, in the wake of all-out cyber-attacks, the world’s infrastructure could collapse within 15 minutes.

To me, and perhaps to you as well, this sometimes sounds like science fiction comedy. But quite a few smart people aren’t laughing.

Perhaps that’s why NATO held the largest-ever cyber war games in Tartu, Estonia in November 2014. The games were supposedly predicated on a scenario pitting NATO against a fictional African country. But according to Financial Times, they simulated real situations that could occur in the wake of a worsening Ukrainian crisis.

And perhaps that’s why governments all over the world are pouring massive resources toward developing both the offensive and defensive cyber-technologies, with, unfortunately, most of the money spent on offense.

Lone wolf hackers-for-hire are another big wild card: One 15-year-old successfully invades NASA, causing a 22-day shutdown of systems that support the international space station.

And this is not science fiction. It has happened — repeatedly and massively.

Why? Because the entire structure of the Internet was created for fluid access and convenience — not for security.

Mobile phones, GPS, the Cloud, Big Data, drones and driverless cars — everything that we’ve been talking about that powers global techno-economic advancement — also has a soft underbelly: Vulnerability to cyber-attacks.

Connecting the Dots to Your Money

I see two phases:

In Phase I, the reality, and the fear,of these kinds of World War III scenarios drives the Global Money Tsunami — capital flows of scared money to the one economy still perceived to be the safest and least vulnerable, the United States.

Thanks, in great measure, to these massive inflows …

The U.S. dollar, despite setbacks, continues to gain in strength.

The U.S. economy, despite its continuing big debt burden, continues to benefit.

The highest quality U.S. stocks, despite zigzag up-and-down periods like now, make their owners wealthy.

The bottom line for you. Like my good friend Bill Donoghue always says: Invest in the best and drop the rest.

And like my father always used to stress: Better safe than sorry.

A Final Word

For every flood of fear, there’s a fountain of hope. And just as forecasts of bliss can lead to complacency or trouble, each forecast of disaster can be self-negating as well, leading to prudence, prevention, and a better, or less severe, outcome than expected.

Whether they’re among credible ones or not, I pray the same will also be the fate of the increasingly common prophecies of World War III.

Some are bound to come true. But we should also be able to avoid the ugliest of their consequences.

Good luck and God bless!

Don’t totally discount the use of nuclear weapons in WW III. It is just that an all-out exchange between big superpowers is unlikely. The Islamic State shows that barbarian conquest of large empires is still possible. Do you really think that a country wouldn’t use nukes if the alternative is being overrun by the Islamic State, and its entire population being beheaded? Of course they will use nukes – and still lose. And the IS would use them too for conquest, since they don’t care how many people are killed. I see WW III as the Caliphate’s effort to conquer the entire planet. It has already started with the Sunni-Shiite war in Syria and Iraq, and that war will spread and intensify until the Caliphate is able to bring down the Shiites and kill them all. Then they will move like Genghis Khan to conquer all of Eurasia and Africa, and they will be too big, too fanatical, and too ferocious for even the superpowers to stop. Nukes will be useless in stopping them as well. WW III has to be an all-out global war to be worthy of the name, and that requires a global conquering force. I believe that the Islamic State is that force..

That is why the negotiations between Iran and the United States are so crucial to containing ISIL. Iran is actively engaged in opposing ISIL right now. To release Iran from the onerous “sanctions” it has been suffering through since 1979 would create a new trading partner for the United States as well as a buffer against ISIL.

Dear Dr. Weiss,
This article about war is interesting, but it cannot take the place of your investment advice i.e.Stocks and ETF’s. I am a charter subscriber, and I have to say that you are not keeping
your end of the deal !. This is apart from the performance of the Ultimate portfolio, which is
(much) less than stellar, compared with the Dow industrials for instance.
If you are discontinueing your Ultimate portfolio , you need to tell us,subscribers.
And if you are not, you need to comply with your promissed Friday evening actionable investment advice. Hiding behind new “stars” is not very courageous.
I would appreciate your answer.
Sincerely.
Herbert J. Everstijn

You have hit the nail on the head, Herbert. But will you get an answer from Weiss? I doubt it. The truth is he has, more than likely, more losers than he has winners but the outrageous hype to promote his ‘products’ is in my opinion dishonest to say the least. Let him show us the percentage of his winners vs his losers and then perhaps I will renew my subscriptions.

You obviously have not read and do not believe the Bible. Very evident use of nukes in the coming battles spoken of in there.

The last word

WW3 began in America at WTC on 9/11. We lost 3,000 of our own people in building collapses and NIST can’t even do an honest investigation. Just look at the evidence and ask Washington for an unbiased investigation. Architects and Engineers – Ed Asner.
Our country will never heal and no administration will ever be trusted until we get an investigation that uncovers the truth.

what is happing is in the bible. Every one should read The Harbinger and The mystery of the Shemitah by Jonathan Cahn it tells the story and removes any dout.

anneSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 8:30 am

The counterbalance of nuclear warfare only works when both sides hold a healthy fear of annihilation. When a culture or religion assumes that a global conflict will hasten the return of their savior, or political dominance, then fear is replaced by an embraced enthusiasm. We are no longer dealing with nations that hold nuclear potential, we are dealing with a religious or philosophical belief system that does not lend itself to normal logic. Their logic extends only to ways that actually trigger the very event that in past decades prevented that same event.

JeffSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 8:39 am

Google “Joel Skousen” if you want to learn about the possibility of nuke wars. He believes it is very possible and advises his clients to prepare for it.

Don RuaneSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:01 am

You left out the one wild-card that makes your concept meaningless.
The fulfillment of the words of the Koran, A WORLD WIDE CALIFATE.
Islam is motivated by world domination.
They will use any and all means, including Nukes, to achieve world domination, even if there World Domination last only for 2 seconds. They will have HONORED Allah instruction in the Koran.
They believe that DEATH will be sweet and meaningful.

In the late 1990’s I read a factual book by Tim LaHaye the same author that co-wrote The Rapture. In this book he painstaking goes through revelations and supports the second coming of Christ. One of the points he made was that the bible says that Israel will be attacked massively by its enemies and lead by the country from the far north. He points out that each time the bible makes reference to the country from the far north it means Russia. Now in the late 1990’s that just did not seem possible so I discounted that point and now since Russia began a proxy war with the US involved in Syria, it caught my attention. The bible also says that God will intervene and no Jews will be hurt while all of its enemies will be killed and that it will take 6 months to pick up the bodies and 7 years to burn the weapons. LaHaye then points out that the Russian Kalashnikov is actually made of a type of wood found in Russia that burns more efficiently than coal. It is the most popular rifle in the middle east. So, what are the odds that this prophecy comes true? I would said near zero in the ’90’s but now, better than 50/50. After that war ends, a 7 year peace agreement will be signed by Israel and it’s enemies. This almost seems inevitable now and it will start the clock for the return of Jesus. The bible says you will never know exactly when He will return, only the Father know that for a fact. But, you can know the season. One other item to look for is the rebuilding of the Temple Mount. The rebuilding has been planned in detail and the building materials are all in storage, the religious implements have been made and the priests have been trained all waiting for the time when the Al Aqsa and Dome of the Rock will be replaced by the Temple Mount. What I thought would never happen in my lifetime seems more likely.

Dr. J. Gayle GibsonSunday, March 15, 2015 at 11:38 am

Dear Tom, I read your note about the Bible prophecy and I think you are right on. One other point very recently exploration in the area 600 feet south of the present Temple mound lead Bible experts to believe this was the orginal Zion and the thrashing floor God told David to buy,also the location of Solomans first Temple. You should read BoB Cornuke” Temple” it all backed up by scripture. What a implication politically to the Middle East if this discovery is true. This will support your interpitation of Gods Plan for Israel.Also ” The 83 Psalms” talks about the Muslim Confedercy of 12 Islamic Nations being created as we speak..God Bless you and keep prayed up Dr.JGG

KevinSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:11 am

Saying that a WWIII with nuclear arms included is not likely because of mutual fear of destruction ignores the fact the Islamic terrorists are working to instigate a major cataclysmic war in order to prepare the way and usher in the return of their “messiah” and world domination by Islam. Iran is working 24/7 to be nuclear ready to instigate such an attack so as to dominate the Islam-controlled world, even in competition with the Islam State. They will probably be ready to strike before the end of Obama’s term — but may wait until after his term per an Obama-Iran agreement. It’s difficult for “western” minds to understand this religious mindset and fervor, but these fanatics do not fear this destructive power but rather welcome it.

Travis WilliamsSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:57 am

WWIII would be happening now if not for détente. But if the terrorists or Iran obtain the ability to deliver an a-bomb the world is in trouble, they believe their sacrifice in the name of Allah is justified. Don’t depend on Obama to strike where it is needed; he wants Muslim domination of the world, and plays to that end. Pray for our next President — he has big problems — survival of humanity as we know it.

PeterWSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 1:18 pm

You talk about how the US has Financially punished Russia and its people, my take is that the the World is now in the process of embracing a new financial system, which will parallel the US Financial System. and ultimately bypass the US Financial Power.

All those Nations that perceive that the Rich and Powerful in the US has financially raped them, will eventually join that new financial system.

I have been told that the Euro Stock Market has gone up, due to the loss of value of the Euro. If the Euro continues to loss value, then their Stock Market will appreciate, with the US Market falling.

Money may look for a new safe haven.

The West is worried, because Putin appears to have disappeared, their concern is with whom he is secretly meeting and Why..

When the US first set about making Russia an Enemy, I wrote that the US opened Pandora’s Box. Further he who opens this box cannot close it.

The above is one of the consequences.

Fred GibsonSunday, March 15, 2015 at 9:00 pm

Well said, Peter. I tend to agree with you.

LARRYSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 1:25 pm

I, like other commenters, suggest you stick to investing. There are plenty of “nuts” out there who would not hesitate to use Nukes. Certainly some of the other concerns you brought out are real, but your basic premise of the use of nukes is unfortunately off base.

paulSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 1:55 pm

MATHEW 24:6-8″there will be wars and rumors of wars but the end is not yet for nation shall rise against nation nation and kingdom against kingdom,and there shall be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in different places.all these are the beginning of sorrows.verse 21-22for then shall be great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the world or ever shall be,and except those days be shortened no flesh should be saved(alive). but for the elects sake those days shall be shortened. all of those things you are talking about in your article are the beginnings of what will be world war III.but make no mistake about it biological,chemical and nuclear war is coming.it is only a matter of when,and when it happens, unless it is supernaturally stopped there will be no animals or fish or possibly even bugs (depending on whether they are categorized as flesh)would be left alive on earth.there has not been a class of weapon invented that has not been used and that includes nuclear.we are living in a time when even small relatively small nations like north korea and iran are developing nuclear weapons as well as other weapons of mass destruction.the united states and russia each have more than enough weapons in stockpile to kill every man woman child and fish on earth. it is only a matter of time.when nations see no possibility of their survival there will be no reason for them not to use every weapon at their disposal to make sure that their enemy is destroyed too.it will take a miracle for anything to survive on earth and we all must pray that the bible is true, or else no one will survive on earth.it doesnt matter if we believe it or not,it will come it is only a matter of time.

Louise CaveSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 2:02 pm

I like your spin on the nuclear threat, although someone should recall that we, the U.S., used an atomic bomb when WWII seemed to justify it. Is it any different today in the midst of clashing ideologies? I hope that your predictions of restraint are correct and that civilizations survive this difficult time with only market fluctuations to show for it!

Dr. Weiss,

Thank you for a readable, needable and important article.

Lckd&LdedSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 3:44 pm

You seem to forget that there is a group out there called ISIS. They have no conception of a conventional war. ISIS wants anyone who will not conform to their brand of Islam dead. Not injured or maimed, they want us dead. It’s foolish talk to think they would not use dirty bombs, chemicals or even biological or nukes if they could. You seem to share the same views as oduma. The coffee is on the stove, smell it and wake up. ISIS does not care about fighting an economics war.

Viet VetSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 3:51 pm

To say that nukes will never be used is a fallacy. I don’t know where you get your information but it is faulty at best. But to tell people that they have nothing to fear is just wrong. I have over 40 years of experience in the military and OTHER government agencies. That’s why when I retired I went sooo far off the grid that you have to go 25 miles to the nearest blacktop road. Most of my contacts that are still in place tell me that this administration is preparing this Country for a huge fall. They WANT this Country to fail. PREPARE OR DIE. And I’m not talking about buying stocks.

shellSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 11:11 pm

its good to know some of us are prepared, hopefully. What state, can I ask, did you disappear into? Is any state, or country safe?

David CookeSaturday, March 14, 2015 at 8:38 pm

The concept that advanced nations will decline to nuke each other is well tried. Over the decades of the Cold War, no advanced nation really got near to nuking a similarly equipped advanced nation. The prospect of retaliation and of mutually assured annihilation held. Even when Kruschev attempted to threaten the US while stepping out of the target zone by locating the offensive launching sites on a third country location – the Cuban missile crisis – it proved ineffective and Kennedy had little hesitation in calling Kruschev’s bluff. Iran would be extremely unlikely to launch a nuclear strike if the US or the UK or, for that matter, Russia issued a credible threat of nuclear reprisal.

Turning to technically less advanced nations – let’s consider the ISIS (ISIL? – whatever) – such a technically lesser protagonist poses a much less potent threat. Osama bin Laden managed the highjack of three unprotected aircraft and took out an extremely high profile target in New York – an extremely high profile location for such a target. However, he hardly started anything compatible to the Third World War. Could he have purchased the technology to mount a nuclear strike? Only if a technically advanced nation sold the technology he would require. None presently shows any appetite to do so. And for good reason. Should a nuclear armorer so equip the ISIL, then the technically advanced nation would know that it would be considered the head aggressor and would be subject to retaliatory strikes in turn.

I don’t want to sound complacent but it does seem to me that a nuclear Third World War is unlikely so long as we don’t all decide to disarm. Less potent wars – such as that which ISIL is presently fighting – are likely to erupt from time to time. Our response and preparations need constant review. But nothing looks likely to derail just at present.

rj3Sunday, March 15, 2015 at 12:47 pm

All of this is interesting, both the article and the comments, to myself and perhaps to more than a few “other” folks. By that I mean the folks who don’t even get a chance to read it, or perhaps couldn’t understand the points of view in any event. But the truth is that none of us can dissuade the coming events, whether they be good or bad. I am a “normal” guy, a bit retired from the car repair industry and a proud father and grandfather. I am also a man who has become more than a little upset and irritated by the weekly, daily and hourly warnings of complete collapse of our entire world order, such a mess that it might be. What am I to expect or pray for? How can I look at my grandchildren and believe that they have even the smallest chance at becoming a useful and respectable being? It is obvious, at least to me, that “man” cannot uphold the high standards of living and communicating. If we are doomed to the utter failure, or, if we are doomed to this mess of unbridled corruption and negativeness then all of the thought and work of the Lord will have been in vain. On the other hand, if the dire world as is being discussed here is a nothing and will not come to be then we should all become believers” and rejoice in our lives. I choose to be of the later brand. I know that I cannot materially affect the outcome, but I do feel as if the Lord will spare my soul and the souls of my offspring.

Rudi MeganckMonday, March 16, 2015 at 12:26 pm

When talking about WW III, the first thing to do is to take into account the ”Law of the Cycles”, like did Larry Edelson. This is why his war scenario is correct and reliable. The second step is to make a comparative study of prophecies. Nostradamus is still world champion of all prophets. In his quatrains published in 1555, he wrote: ” The sterile synagogue without fruit (zionism) will be received among the infidels (moslims). The daughter of Babylon (islam) will cut the wings of the miserable and sad persecuted (the jewish people) (VIII,96).
The Holy Places will be repopulated (by the jews) and become inhabitable, because the control of certain territories (Palestina) will be a cause of big division. When their governments will fall into the hands of undecised and uncapable leaders, then between the big (semitic) brothers there will be death and dissension(II,96). The vernal point (March 21) will be preceded by extreme changes in the political regimes. It is a time of revolutions, huge earthquakes and the unslaughter of armies coming from the new Russia, from the miserable daughter of Ancient Babylon and assisted by Prussian Germany (East Germany), who perpetrated the first ” Holocaust” (Letter to Henri II, King of France, par. 4). This word was not known in 1555 and if Nostradamus mentionned the word ”first” it means that a second is on the way. The State of Israël was founded by an obscure secret power as a ”bait” to attract the islamic world into WW III and to get rid of the zionists parked and trapped in the Hebrew State. Nostradamus mentionned the Alliance of the Seven (Russia and 6 moslim nations) as the initiators of WW III. The Russian army (40 % of her soldiers are moslim !) is now in the best of strategic war positions. Since 2008 Abkhazia and South Ossetia of Georgia are Russian military bases, perfectly positionned to get straight into Syria and Lebanon. Since 2013, the Russian navy occupied the Krim this marine base is pointed like a pistol on the heart of Turkey. But when the Russian army passes through Turkey the war is inevitable, because this country is a member of NATO, wich means that we all will be ”sitting in the yellow submarine” of WW III … The USA will have so many troubles with their own disasters caused by the inversion of the magnetic earth field, that they will not be able to do much for the other countries of the world. Scientists follow actually the shift of the magnetic northpole on the Asiatic continent, instead of his normal place around the geographic pole in Canada. Since the year 1600, the magnetic northpole never left the Canadian territory ! But keep smiling. We will win this war, but only by a miracle and the price will be very high. I hope to finish in summertime my book about 400 quatrains, specially written by Nostradamus for our times and arranged in the right chronological order. You will read it like a newspaper. WW III : for about 2020. What is the best way to invest?

No matter all this sharing shown, the question is, DO HUMANS WANT SUCH A WAR TO SHOW THEM HOW INCREDIBLY STUPID THEY ARE?

Such upheaval puts us on the level of how many sci fi scenarios Hollywood has made would be. Do humans want to face a world they were stupid enough to let happen in their idiocy? There is NO polite from me in this query.

I have grown tired of the volatile the species has shown for eons to this timeline point. Is why the TERMINATOR series packs such a potent message. Humans killed off by the vary weapons meant to protect them. Skynet merely allowed its creator humans to make what needed to become conscious computer and make one side attack another.

NOTHING NEW!!!! Can’t blame the creation when its creator kept going to show himself how incredibly stupid making. Human arrogance has its conceited price.

Again Dr., the ultimate query ask, HOW MANY HUMANS THIS PLANET WANT WWIII? I am amongst those who wonder when the WAR MONGERING will cease. Makes us NO BETTER than past peoples who made warring their past time other side of Atlantic, keeping it away from our tribal life to be called America by Europe. We were simply tribes in an “Eden” because the major rule to us and is, HONOR AND RESPECT THE LAND, TAKE FROM IT NO MORE THAN NEEDED. Explain how the white man went crazy getting here. He bore false witness, words and paper meant nothing, and covetous, always wanted more land.

Now he shows crazy in BLOW IT ALL UP if he cannot have all power. If this were allowed to happen, IT WILL NOT, thank you David Wilcox insight/brilliant mind, here is where the WATCHERS will show their experiment called Earth is not allowed to do since the event of 12/21/12. Any questions ask the Hopi nation. They are the prophets for this world to reveal what is what and why. If you think you know more than a God how this trial species is easy to replace, and we are quite so, take deep thought what YOU REMOTELY PRESUME YOU KNOW. You are as the rest of Dr. title, limited to what is Earth bound perception in academic knowledge. Are you also a war monger in thought to show us these supposed reason humans would obliterate selves? Then most people have learned nothing from 11,000 years past, in what is now Indonesia. The ancient cities are being found in depths of sea/ocean. Proof how much the remnant ICE AGE took its toll in their warring in weapons of GREAT HEAT.

So Dr., a show of hands how any nations comprehend how MORONIC a WWIII.
